Newbie at GP4

hI my name is Kawal and i have just got gp4 i have gp3 and gp3 2000. my problem is gp4, my system is recommended for the game to run but the fps are so high.

my system is a
1.6 AMD Athlon
256 ram sdram
128mb geforce 4 t 4800i card
msff wheel USB

30gb hard disk

the main problem is the fps are so high i have tryed to turn all the detail down but i still have high fps.
I think it may be the DirectX messing up and yes i have installed the DIRECTX that came with the game.

AS for the other Grand Prix games they all run fine.
the game came with the patch i installed it but still no luck

a part from this big ass problem the game seems to run ok


i hope i have given as much information so you can figure out what is happening wrong.

Kawal

you mean your fps is to high? that's a problem? hmm.. in the graphic menu in the game switch to manual and set the fps you wan't..

he might mean processor occupancy is too high? and fps is too low?

RIP Jules, never to be forgotten. #KeepFightingMichael

thats what i mean sorry the processor occupancy is to high the lowest i ever get is about 230 and the highest i saw it go was up to 1023. the net result being the picture moves to slow one fram at a time like every 2 or 3 seconds. and btw i have Windows XP Pro on my system.

One orther thing i forgot to say when i am in the graphics menu and i change my resaloution setting the game crashes to desktop

i am think because my card is a geforce 4 ti 4800 maybe the Direct X inthe game needs DirectX 8.1 and the card may only support DX9 but then again i have other games installed like nascar 2003 Max Payne 2 which is a higher spec game then gp4

i hope this extra information helps

thanks
guys

by the way , welcome to the forum.

try to install the newest drivers, and reinstall direct x 9.0b. Install your mobo drivers too, the latest one.
